Things to Expect From Asphalt Shingles

Roofs are one of the most important parts of every household. This is why people are urged to consider it a great investment and utilize the right materials to ensure it is fully functional. While it is overwhelmingly complex given its multiple components, we’ll talk you through the things to expect from one of the roofing system’s layers: asphalt shingles.

  1. Versatility

    The granule-coated material shingles have can resemble the sophisticated look of tile, slate and even cedar shake. This makes all asphalt shingles able to complement any architectural style, coming in various colors, sizes and textures for you to choose from. 
  2. Easy Installation and Maintenance

    Since asphalt shingles are generally more lightweight than other roofing items and materials, they may not require additional framing for support. This feature speeds up the installation process, reducing the noise, mess and other distractions to your day-to-day routine. Moreover, an asphalt shingle roof only requires very minimal maintenance, allowing you to save more time and on the upkeep costs.
  3. Recyclability

    Investing in asphalt shingles, you can easily take part in helping the environment. Energy-efficient products can minimize the carbon footprint of your household as well as your utility bills. Moreover, this material can be recycled, thanks to its asphalt content which reduces the waste that goes into landfills.
